Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, cubed, room temperature
  • 1-3/4 cups sugar
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups Kodiak Buttermilk & Honey Frontier Flapjack & Waffle Mix 
  • 1-1⁄4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 3⁄4 cup sour cream
  • 3⁄4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

 

For the icing:

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1-1⁄2 cups confectioners’ sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Milk, warmed, as needed 

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 10 cup Bundt pan. Set aside. 
  2. Place the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer for 5 minutes, until light and fluffy. 
  3. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, scraping the bowl after each addition. 
  4. Add the salt, flapjack mix, baking powder, and cinnamon to the bowl and beat in until almost combined.
  5. Add the sour cream, pumpkin puree, and vanilla extract to the bow and continue beating until just combined. Scrape down the bowl and beat for an additional 5 seconds.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan and drop on the counter a few times to remove air pockets.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. 
  8. Let cool for 10 minutes, then invert the pan onto a cooling rack. Let the cake cool completely before icing.

 

For the icing:

  1. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Continue cooking until browned and nutty smelling. Remove from heat.
  2. Place the confectioners’ sugar, vanilla extract, and browned butter in a mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of warmed milk and whisk together until smooth. Whisk in more warmed milk until a drizzle-able consistency is achieved. 
  3. Drizzle glaze over the cooled cake. Dust with cinnamon, if desired. 
  4. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
